Okay, I wasn't expecting this change as this relies on the nul termination
by strscpy() since the original buffer does not have one but the #
character there. But I guess it isn't harmful either.

AUXMAC_START is an offset ??? It should be AUXMAC_LEN.

I only now realized there are two gotos to auxmacinvalid. Therefore, I'd
do this instead:
free:
kfree(obj);
return 0;
auxmacinvalid:
strscpy(auxmac, "unavailable", AUXMAC_LEN);
goto free;
I'm sorry about my incorrect suggestion the last time.
